What kind of wrong radio will brick my phone?
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium

No radio will brick your phone unless it's foyo. There are however region released radios. However it doesn't really matter, boot any radio newer than yours and you'll be fine. Reception doesn't really change between choices unless you skip a couple months.

Unsigned radios can brick your phone too.

check the md5 checksum which is provided. TO check md5 checksum google for "md5 checker" or similar

Yes it will, and it will increase data speed, providing you find the right one. I'm using ViperVivo Rom with 11m works best for me.

I also updated my radio and i think the battery and signal also improved!

Radio issue

Hey guys I sold my captivate to a friend that lives in NY, and before I shipped it to him it got signal fine, but it won't work for him. He's flashed other roms and modems. Does anyone have any idea

It might be worth letting us know what rom/kernel he's on, as well as what modems he has tried. The more info you can give, the better.
Well he when I sent him the phone he was running the continuum gingerbread with the modem in that version,and the reoriented kernal. The dev section has a lot of new stuff since I had my captivate. I'll get with him and get all the correct info

Have him flash the phone to stock and verify that it works.
Could be the sim card as well.

From looking at the attached thread, it should still be possible to edit the files successfully without an existing backup.

No, don't install Incredible 2 ROMs on an Incredible S. They won't work because although the phones look very similar there are important differences in the hardware. There's an MIUI port for the IS in the Android Development section of this forum.
Ok. Thanks

can you please tell me if this is the one ?

Wow! May I know which part of Australia you live in? Coz now I only get around 2 bars
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
I myself have been using the 17.00.24_M radio w/ Playground ICS for about a week now (optus also).
I can't say that I've experienced any issues as of yet, so I guess that's a good sign.
Havn't noticed any improvement in reception or battery life that I can pinpoint for sure but I havn't had a problem getting good/full reception here in South-East Melbourne, Australia.
The .29M ROM Works great with Gb ROMs and the radio in my signature works great with ICS ROMs also.... You may choose from .29 M or from the radio as given in my signature.
